I liked this one more than I expected to, having hardened my heart against the genre because of, you know, the constant barrage of hate speech. Then again, I still found certain tracks obnoxious, like "One Love" and "The World Is Yours."
I guess this is one of the highest praised albums of all time. I was surprised by this. It was good, but it's certainly not the most innovative hip hop albums we've had on the List. The highlights for me were "Life's a Bitch" and "Halftime."
If you are into this kind of music, you will enjoy this, and you can continue to gloat that your favorite genre seemingly takes up roughly a third of the List.
RATING: 3/5
